urban postmodernism

is a rejection of the modernist emphasis on rational planning, large-scale development, social utility, and purity of form for a locally grounded, fragmented, aesthetic space.

For Harvey, urban postmodernism rejects modernist emphases on rational planning, large-scale development, social utility, and purity of form for a locally grounded, fragmented and eclectic aesthetic that combines various aesthetic styles (often in a purposely discontinuous manner) and sees space strictly as an aesthetic category.'
